Certains auteurs rendent cette notion en français par le terme «protection de l'environnement». Malheureusement, ce terme ne couvre pas complètement l'aire sémantique de la notion. La protection de l'environnement est, bien sûr, au centre des préoccupations des législateurs, mais elle ne constitue que l'aspect passif de la notion; en effet, cette notion comprend aussi un autre aspect, plus dynamique et en conformité avec les principes récents du développement durable, celui de l'utilisation rationnelle et à long terme à des fins économiques de l'environnement en question. 4, record 1, French, - conservation%20de%20l%27environnement
